This patch modifies the newlib and Contiki C and C++ compiler flags to omit exception handling unwind tables (see http://wiki.dwarfstd.org/index.php?title=Exception_Handling). Removing these tables saves space in debug builds and has not caused any readily-apparent functional changes. Here is the size listing for an example program built without this patch: text data bss dec hex filename 76002 1508 21224 98734 181ae all-timers.galileo Here is the size listing for the same program with this patch: text data bss dec hex filename 72918 1508 21224 95650 175a2 all-timers.galileo The primary motivation for this patch is to help enable UEFI support. The .eh_frame and .eh_frame_hdr sections that are otherwise generated are treated as code sections by the EDK2 GenFw program, since they are read-only alloc sections. They get grouped with the actual code sections, ahead of the data sections. This perturbs symbols and complicates debugging. |
